About Us

As another Christmas storm bears down on the High Country, the staff at High Country Radio and GoBlueRidge.net are prepared to serve the community. We will have staff at the ready—even Christmas morning—to deal with weather issues, traffic, and power outages.
We do have a new closings and cancellations phone line—one available for text messages and email, and that is 828-278-9515—that’s 278-9515, local to Watauga and Avery. What the new system allows is for staff members of the radio stations and GoBlueRidge.net to be notified at any time there is a new closing so that even when we’re not looking at weather or other events that cause school, business and church closings and cancellations, we won’t miss your information. We still have all our other avenues for reporting to us open, but hope to move all calls to the new number. Again, that new number is 828-278-9515.
